This piece can be viewed at our Vancouver furniture store in Point Grey at 4415 W 10th Ave.
The basket is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, and adorns a rich weathered finish.
Instead of holding corn, picture this basket holding rolled towels by your tub or pool, throws for cool fall evenings, or on its side with pumpkins and gourds spilling out, showing off its pretty inverted bottom.
Antique baskets bring warmth, texture, and authenticity to interiors in a way that new reproductions cannot. The Large Antique Corn Basket's generous scale, handwoven construction, and rich patina make it an ideal styling piece for farmhouse, English country, Belgian, French provincial, and Ralph Lauren-inspired homes. Use it beside a fireplace, filled with throws, or as a sculptural accent in an entryway.
Originally used for harvesting and storing corn in rural European farmhouses, antique corn baskets were handcrafted from locally sourced natural materials. Today they are prized for their sculptural form, handwoven craftsmanship, and one-of-a-kind character.
